其他新特性和改进Audacious can now be built as a headless music player “daemon” with
no GTK+ dependency. It this configuration, it can be controlled using
either audtool or your favorite MPRIS 2 client. Note that some plugins
still require GTK+. By default, playback now resumes in a paused state upon startup, so
that you can press play to continue from where you left off. If
desired, there is still an option to resume immediately in an audibly
playing state. It is now possible to sort a playlist by genre. A new “Open Containing Folder” command has been added to the GTK+ interface. Window positions of visualization plugins and of the search tool are
now saved and restored at startup when the Winamp Classic interface is
used. A new menu option and keyboard shortcut (Y) have also been added
to activate the search tool. There is a new effect plugin to remove leading and trailing silence
in any song file. Enabling this effect is recommended if you’re using
crossfade. New controls have been added to the song information dialog to allow
tagging entire albums without retyping the artist and album name for
each song. A new option has been added to probe content of files with no
recognized filename extension. With this option enabled, files with no
extension can be added to playlists and to the library automatically,
and subtunes in those files will also be recognized. The extra probing
does slow Audacious down, so enable the option only if needed. Support for the SID song lengths database has been restored. Songlengths.txt should be installed in the same location as the C64 ROMs (generally /usr/share/sidplayfp/ on Linux). The ALSA output plugin now checks for new devices when the settings
dialog is opened, so it’s no longer necessary to restart Audacious after
plugging in a USB audio device. The JACK and sndio output plugins have been rewritten from scratch in order to fix a number of problems. Two new plugins have been added for native audio output and multimedia keyboard support on Mac OS X. The generic and unhelpful “No decoder found” message has been
replaced with somewhat more specific error reporting; for example, “No
such file or directory.”
相比 Audacious 3.5.2 的 bug 修复
MP4 decoding now uses FFmpeg instead of the deprecated libmp4ff (#425) Menus appear on the correct monitor under Windows (#450) Better tolerance for various character encoding errors (#481) Fixed an issue parsing ID3 text fields containing null characters (#498) Fixed a crash triggered by character encoding errors (#504) The user interface no longer freezes while the last song in the playlist fades out. A-to-B repeat correctly repeats from the end of the song if only point A is set. Fixed extreme CPU usage when copying and pasting thousands of playlist entries. MP3 files without Replay Gain tags are no longer amplified by 1 dB.
Audacious是一款Linux下的音乐播放器，与其它播放器的不同之处在于，它除了支持UTF-8字符集之外，还提供其它字符集的支持，这样能比较好的解决中文乱码的问题。
